Walkin' Bum

The railroad don't go there
Airplane don't go there
Gray hound don't go there
Anywhere near there
That mean I gotta walk
Gotta stick out my thumb
But the folks round these here parts child
They don't pick up no walkin' bum
My baby sent me there
I didn't wanna go there
Said that I'd find some work there
Or somewhere near there
I didn't get no job
No I didn't get none
I'm out on this highway
I ain't nothin' but a walkin' bum
Walkin' in the rain
Walkin' in the sun
And I ain't got no choice
I'm a walkin' bum
I gotta get home
Anyway that I can now
These rocks and stones are hurtin' my feet
This walkin' bum is still a man
The railroad don't go there
Airplane don't go there
Gray hound don't go there
Anywhere near there
That mean I gotta walk
Ain't no sense in stickin out my thumb
Cause these folks in alabama
They just don't pick up no walkin' bums
And that's what I am now
I'm a walkin' bum
I'm gonna get home someway
Think I'll just pull my shoes off
Sit down right here beside the road
